Happy dreary Monday, everyone! Hope your week is off to a great start. What is everyone reading this week? I started Radio Silence by Alice Oseman and I’m loving it so far. I was worried I’d only like her as a graphic novel author/artist, but her prose is just as good. I’m also hoping to knock out some manga this week, specifically the rest of Phantom Tales of the Night. Also started the next History of Middle-Earth book, The Shaping of Middle-Earth.

Happy reading!

Heidi | 9 comments I am halfway through Until Leaves Fall in Paris by Sundin and am wishing I had found this author sooner! Also reading None of This Would Have Happened if Prince Were Alive, which has me laughing out loud in parts!

The Guest List is on my TBR. One of the library book clubs read Lucy Foley's Paris Apartment last month and it was great! Can't wait to read other titles by this author.

Awesome reads, Heidi! I'm glad you were able to figure out the cover images.

Ingrid Hurst (bookrdr) | 285 comments I just finished The Nightingale.
Normally this would not be a book I wanted to read because the topic haunts me, but I couldn’t put it down. Finished it in three days. So well written.
I can only read her books occasionally because I don’t like reading books that make me cry.

Books that make me cry aren't my favorite either. I prefer my stories to be happy. But I do see the importance of those books!
